National Bank Notes make up the most plentiful and extensive series of all US Currency. They were issued from 1863 to 1929 by thousands of local or small hometown banks. They were issued in 3 different charters.
First Charters or Origional Charters were issued from 1863 to 1875 as a result of the Act of February 25, 1863
The
Bureau of Engraving and Printing's (BEP)
takes you to the official government site of the BEP
for some interesting information and facts on all of
our US currency.
US Papermoney will take you to a site that
is full of information on everything you ever wanted
to know about our US currency. Almost everything
anyway. Very cool site!
The American Numismatics Association (ANA) is a
professional organization for those who want to
further learn about US coins and currency.
PMG and
PCGS are the only two TRUE independent
currency-grading services available. I highly
recommend these two companies for those of you who
want to get their currency certified and graded for
insurance purposes or simply, a peace of mind.
